Well, I've been asked many times what ayahuasca is like, and like most people in my position, I've found it difficult to fully explain the experience without the ability to impose immediate direct experience on someone. Below is a reply I sent to a friend, who happens to be an amazing drummer (and who has been a great help and inspiration in writing songs in the past), which I figured I would share with you, the unknown reader. We are not just individual beings, randomly created, lonely and lost. Our existence is dualistic in nature, both separate and connected with each other. I hope the below provides a glimpse of light on a subject clouded in unfortunate obscurity. While I do not believe that aya is the sole way to Truth, I do believe in the power of experience of Truth and the doorway that aya allows us to openly walkthrough to experience Truth in an experiential and obvious way. Nature is God's great gift to us, necessary to sustain life....there is much to be learned from nature in general and plants specifically. Fear of those lessons has more to do with control and less to do with danger, though it is critical that people retain a massive amount of respect for plants as teachers. These things can and will kill you if you do not adhere to the lessons of our ancestors and posses/maintain respect for those lessons learned. Love always, ~j (0 comments)

Where to start, eh? To those of you who continue to keep in touch via here and www.myspace.com/aneverywheresnowhere I owe a great bit of gratitude. You are amazing and extradorinary. Life's been busy, with the addition of our newest daughter to our family, and my spiritual travels around the world; what a ride is all I have to say. (0 comments)

Recently, I had the pleasure of getting to know Justin Gleaves, of "An Everywhere's Nowhere" one of Krushradio's newest Local Launch Bands. Justin, who was born and grew up in Columbus, Ohio and now lives in the Washington D.C area, describes "An Everywhere's Nowhere as "a rock swirling electronic grooving exotic stereo world experience."

It's depressing that people are so tuned to the materialistic self that there isn't any room for God (I leave the definition to you to figure out...make your own choice and suffer your own consequence is my motto...) (3 comments)
